Default keeping 2 versions of OE the same

Remo Shiva wrote:
I use OE on both my laptop and PC with multiple email accounts on
each, is there way to keep both versions the same, so if i have
emails in my inbox on my pc and different emails on my laptop, is it
possible to swap them round so all emails are on both? if that makes
sense :S
same question with the contacts and newsgroups lists.

thanks alot


Yes. Whether emails are read or not is a function of the machine, not the
server. However, when they're deleted from the server can be a setting in
OE.
Set the email Properties on one machine to never delete emails; leave them
on the server. Make this the one that you use the most so they'll always be
available to the other machine.
Then set the other machine to delete them after, say 7 or 14 days,
whatever seems reasonable to you; there ar other choices there too . Read
mails periodically there and you'll have a complete set all the time.
